Long-Overdue Ladysmith Update


Our first LONG drive warranted
a first stop to fuel up! Diesel fuel is costly, but it's fun that you can pump from both sides of the truck at the same time!



Here's a shot of the afore-mentioned bluffs that I was able to get a quick shot of as I drove past them.

We performed at Ladysmith High School, which is a true high school auditorium-type space. There were lots of scenery pieces from West Side Story in the backstage area, which were fun to navigate around.

At first, we thought the dressing room area would be the band room, but last-minute they realized that the pep band would be performing across the hall that night! This would, of course, entail high school students wandering in and out of the room to collect their instruments, so we moved the costumes to the band director's office.

We enjoyed our hotel very much, especially the fitness center! It had one exercise bike :)

However, dinner at El Rancho was not QUITE as enjoyable. (Jimmy is a very helpful model for dipsplaying pleasure and displeasure alike)






Thank you, Ladysmith!
